coat of arms

The former coat of arms of Eßleben-Teutleben

Blazon : “Split of silver and green with a black shield base, inside a red-silver bar. In front a green linden tree and behind a silver tinned round tower with a black pointed roof. "

Meaning: The community of Eßleben-Teutleben takes up the motif of the community seal from the 19th century in its coat of arms and uses additional symbols to indicate historical and political characteristics of the community. Both communities Eßleben and Teutleben, which were independent communities until 1974, each had an unspecified deciduous tree in the seal in the 19th century. This motif is taken up in the design of the coat of arms and represented by a linden tree. This linden tree stands primarily for Eßleben. A tower was placed in the coat of arms for Teutleben, as there was once a moated castle belonging to the Lords of Teutleben. Remains of a round tower are still preserved today. The border to the state of Saxony-Anhalt - part of the connecting road between the two districts is already in Saxony-Anhalt - is symbolized by a red and silver bar. This also stands for the spatial separation of the two districts.
